简要总结
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a novel smartphone application (Pro2col Health) in regard to multiple health outcomes and health behaviors in healthy middle-aged adults.
详细描述
This is a non-blinded randomized controlled pilot trial conducted over up to 8 weeks. Week 0 will involve baseline measurements and enrollment, Weeks 1-6 constitute the intervention, and Week 7 to 8 is reserved for post-testing. The study will enroll up to 200 participants, with a minimum of 50 participants who meet the inclusion criteria, and a minimum target of 20 participants completing the study in each group (experimental and control).
Following baseline testing and enrollment in the study, participants will be randomly assigned to either the control (CON) or experimental (PRO) group. The control group will receive subject-facing materials depicting current general activity recommendations as published by the American Heart Association (AHA) and current dietary guidelines provided by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). The experimental group will be enrolled in the Prime Health Technologies software (Pro2col), which provides a digital diagnostic score to calculate healthspan and biological age, along with AI and group community-based coaching dynamics. Subjects will be assigned a 6 week progressive protocol targeting improvements in daily activity levels, nutritional awareness, and overall lifestyle risk factors. Both groups will then be monitored by study staff throughout the duration of the intervention period with post-testing taking place following the last week of the experiment.
